I started Psychonauts 2 but it was a pain in the rear end getting the game to recognize my dualshock as a controller on the PC... I'll probably get to it sometime next year

I'm playing a video of all the Pursuit themes from the Ace Attorney series in the background and it's incredibly fitting for the scramble that is the Top 5. :v:

Anyways the last two games on my list that have yet to come up are Metroid Dread & XIV: Endwalker. Oh Boy.

And so we come to the final three. Gold, silver and bronze. The games we know, it’s just the order which will be undecided. Will Disco Elysium be the first game to ever win multiple Game of the Year awards? Will Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker achieve the victory that many feel was preordained? Will Metroid Dread recover from a slow start to pull off the biggest of catch ups? In a way by making it this far they have all already won but in another, much more real way this is the game that you decided to make your #3…

222 points, listed 27 times, #1 6 times


Unbelievable stuff! Not only does Disco Elysium become the first game to chart in the top 10 three times, not only does it go up five places on last year’s chart but it also becomes the first game ever to chart inside the top 3 twice! It’s an impossible result from an impossible game, just incredible. So I’ll see you all here next time when we find out if there’s anyone left to play it who can make it pull off a fourth year!
